Link Du Jour: Kid Lit Cakes

January 10, 2010 by Travis Jonker   3 comments

While I could try to convince you otherwise, this post is really the equivalent of a cute cat video. So, without any further beating around the bush, click here to see cakes based on kids books (via Cake Wrecks, a site that is pretty funny if you take a look at some of the posts).

    Loved the cakes. Felt sick to my stomach over the Kanye West quote. Is he supposed to be a role model? I had only seen this website as cakes with typos, nice to see they allow some beautiful work on the site as well.

    I love your website, BTW.

    I am always happy to see Cake Wrecks shared and this one was a classic *ggod cake* post…best of all is the ending encouragement to go and find a book to read to a kid!
